He Grew Up Mormon. Now He's a Christian Pastor
What happens when someone raised deep inside Mormonism discovers the true Gospel of Jesus Christ? In this episode of Cultish, Andrew Soncrant sits down with Braden Patterson, a former Latter-day Saint who grew up in a generational Mormon family, prepared for a mission, and was fully committed to the LDS faith. Today, Braden serves as a Reformed Baptist pastor and proclaims the Gospel he once opposed. Braden shares his upbringing in Mormonism, growing up in Idaho, his family's deep LDS roots, being baptized at age eight, preparing for missionary service, and the questions that eventually led him to examine the truth claims of Mormonism more closely. Along the way, he discusses Mormon culture, the burden of works-based righteousness, the search for truth, and the grace of God that ultimately opened his eyes to the biblical Gospel. This is a powerful testimony of God's sovereignty, saving grace, and the freedom found in Christ alone.

Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light? Reacting to the Arrest of Abdullah Hashem
In this episode of Cultish, we sit down with James Rayment of The Al-Ma'idah Initiative to discuss the recent allegations surrounding Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light. We examine the growing controversy, the claims being made by former members and critics, and how these issues connect directly to the movement’s teachings and leadership structure. We also take a deep dive into The Goal of the Wise—one of the group’s foundational texts—and analyze how its theology, authority claims, and worldview relate to the allegations now coming to light. Are these incidents isolated problems, or are they consistent with the movement’s core doctrines and practices? This is a serious and important conversation exploring authority, spiritual abuse, cult dynamics, and discernment from a Christian worldview.
